“Quickly! Open the gate!” General Wu, who was stationed at Wanping Town, gave the command. “The rest of you, prepare to shoot the magical beasts!”
Because of all the passengers, Feng Wu’s carriage was a little slower.
Feng Liu and Feng Yiran were much quicker on horseback.
Seeing that the gate was open, Feng Liu’s pupils contracted. Whipping her horse, she tried to get in front of Feng Wu.
Feng Wu smirked, then flicked her whip at Feng Liu.
“Ah!” Feng Liu cried out in pain and glared at Feng Wu!
Feng Wu said in a righteous tone, “Mrs Ning needs to be treated. Jump the queue again and you’ll never get in!”
Mrs Ning? Feng Liu was shocked.
Just then, Mrs Yan lifted the curtain and stared at Feng Liu with a stern look in her eyes.
Feng Liu felt as if a hand was squeezing her heart hard! She didn’t expect Mrs Ning to really be on board…
Feng Wu snorted, then with a crack of her whip, the carriage was inside Wanping Town!
Feng Liu and Feng Yiran ran in after her.
The moment before the gate closed, Yan Yan arrived, gasping. The magical beasts were almost at her elbow!
The guard at the gate pulled Yan Yan in while aiming his spear at a magical beast behind her!
Thud!
The beast was impaled on the spear, and with a thump, the gate was closed!
It was a narrow escape… Lying on the ground, Yan Yan cursed Feng Wu in her head with all the obscenities she could think of.
Covered in Mrs Ning’s blood, Ning Chenxi yelled at General Wu, “General Wu, quickly! Get someone here to save my mother! She needs help!”
Needless to say, General Wu knew who Ning Chenxi was. The man’s heart lurched at those words. “Is Mrs Ning injured?”
Ning Chenxi was worried sick and nodded repeatedly.
“Young Master Ba! Young Master Ba!” General Wu ran out and dragged a young medicine refiner to their side from a few steps away. “There! This is Young Master Ba, the grandson of Master Ba. He learned everything from the old master, I’m sure he’ll save Mrs Ning!”
One’s fame traveled further than oneself. Master Ba was well-known all over the Junwu Empire and Ning Chenxi was a little relieved to see that Young Master Ba was here.
Feng Wu was going to treat Mrs Ning, but everyone else was focused on Young Master Ba.
Qiuling looked at her mistress… Even the old man himself had to ask for Feng Wu’s advice, but all these people were listening to that Young Master Ba only and ignoring her mistress. Were they blind?
Young Master Ba rushed to their side right away. Seeing that Feng Wu was going to treat Mrs Ning, he bellowed, “Who the hell are you?! Stop right there! How dare you touch Mrs Ning?”
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
Qiuling looked at him in indignation. This Young Master Ba was so rude!
Mrs Yan and Yan Yan had been waiting for an opportunity to pick on Feng Wu. Hearing Young Master Ba’s words, they shoved Feng Wu to the side. “We were in a rush back there and had to let you have your way. Now that Young Master Ba is here, you’re redundant! Get lost!”
Yan Yan yelled at Feng Wu, “If my aunt is somehow harmed by your treatment, I’ll kill everyone in your family!”
Feng Wu was never mild in temperament. Hearing those words, she smirked. “Fine, you’ve just killed Mrs Ning. She has to be the most unfortunate person in the world to have you lot as her relatives!”
